Neat!

My daughter was actually pretty excited to get this doll after learning about Helen Keller in school. She is a very neat doll, a good change from all the fashion Barbies. Her favorite part, and mine too, was the box. The braille print was a great bonus and was so much fun to learn about!

Great for older kids

When I gave this doll to my 11 yr old, she had to look up and research about Helen Keller. She is keeping her safe, because she doesn't want to ruin her, and keeps her in the box, however she has to show everyone her new doll and tell them the history she has learned. She also loved the braille included on the back of the box.

Simply awesome!

I was thrilled when we received this Helen Keller Barbie. The box has braille on it which was a great conversation starter for my kids. The barbie itself is of course great quality as well. The barbie also comes with a braille book that she holds. Love this Barbie and plan to buy some for the little girls we know!

Helen

We received the Hellen Keller barbie and its absolutely one of the best barbies I've ever had and we are avid barbie collectors in our home! Starting with the box it's great with the braille! My son was even interested with this box it's amazing! My children were so interested after playing with this barbie that they got on the computer and decided to look up Hellen Keller and wouldn't stop talking about how amazing she was!

Daughter LOVES!

My daughter is absolutely IN LOVE with the doll! She had learned about Helen Keller at school and was so excited to continue her journey of learning about when she arrived. We loved how the box had her story not only for us to read, but also in Braille. Having this really opened my little girls eyes to the world of Braille and inspired her to continue looking into it. The doll is well made and only had one minor little flaw in the bow on her shirt, it was kind of falling off. Otherwise, it’s amazing.

Beautiful Doll

I absolutely love this doll. Everything from the box, to the outfit and the little stand that comes with her! The packaging on this series is really nice. Front the front of the box, you can see the detail on the doll without having to open her all of the way. On the back is a brief description about Helen Keller and some of it, is even in Braille (which I feel was a nice detail to add). On the inside of the packaging comes the doll in her outfit, a tiny braille book, a stand and a certificate of authenticity. She also has several points of articulation in her wrists, arms, neck, knees and legs. So you can have fun posing her for photos....or play. All in all, I would say that this doll is lovely and definitely nice to have either in a collection or for gentle play.

Great Quality and Packaging

I was so impressed by this Helen Keller Barbie from the doll itself to the packaging. When I first opened the package the doll came in I noticed the packaging was heavier and that it had braille on the front and back of the package. That was really impressive because I have never seen that before on any packaging. My daughter also really enjoyed the braille as I read what the packaging said she followed along with her fingers. She has never seen braille writing before. The doll was also great quality and very detailed. I would recommend this to a collector or any child that likes to explore history.
